Hawfinch in St Nicholas

I just had a report in 10.15 (from Gaynor McMorrin) , of a Hawfinch seen briefly near her house in St Nocholas which is near the church. Gaynor is a competent garden birder and she described it as pinky grey, with a huge bill and a black bib, which sounds good to me! RD is going to investigate later, it would be a nice Pemb's Record if confirmed.
Thanks for the bat knowledge Annie, I wonder if they get the same species as us in warmer southern parts such as Spain, Italy and Greece. I suppose if they were in mountainous areas then they might be cold enough to hibernate, otherwise maybe not? I dont remember seeing many bats in the Med' although once diturbed a big roost in an abandoned mill in the Pyrenees which was quite spectacular but I dont know what they were!
